"Yijing" ("The Book of Changes") is one of the oldest books of Chinese civilization and perhaps one of the most famous. It is based on 64 hexagrams, special symbols designed to outline certain life situations and reveal their further development to the questioner. However, the meaning and significance of the "Book of Changes" go far beyond the "fortune teller". Its wisdom "I Ching" inspired many generations of philosophers, writers and other people trying to find answers to the fundamental questions of life and lift the veil over the mystery of existence. The influence of the I Ching on world culture can hardly be overestimated, and it is not without reason that Gustav Jung, who wrote a detailed commentary on the English edition, called it the wisest of all books. This edition includes a classic translation of the "Book of Changes" by Julian Konstantinovich Shutsky with detailed notes, as well as a rare text, created, like many of its kind, under the strong influence of the "I Ching" - a Taoist treatise of the XI century on achieving immortality called "Chapters on the Insight of Truth" translated by Evgeny Alekseevich Torchinov.
